Title: OCD clone
Post by: snailspacejase on January 05, 2014, 09:11:26 AM
Some box designs for an OCD clone. I like the fulltone box but want top sockets.

Looking at the top one, if you feel the 3PDT and Hi/Lo switch are too close together, you could swap around the 3PDT and the battery (if you're really going to use that anyway....) to gain some separation.

That's a very good point.
I think I'm gonna do the bottom one though cos I done a sloped one last time :)

Got it together. Sounds sweet.
Box and knobs all hand made.
Hinged case from 2.5mm steel with 1 screw to get to the guts. Knobs turned from brass.

Would you be interested in selling a couple enclosures? They are way sharp!

This is industrial cool... it just oozes with "stomp me all you want, I'm not going anywhere" attitude.

Well done! And really thought-out well.. ;)
I just love the machined knobs. Incredible!

Cheers guys.
I love the sound of the OCD. Sits well with my RAT and Guv'nor.

They take a long time to make (hacksaw, file, hammer, vice job). So I dont know if it would be economical. Depends how big your wallet is :)
